Common Problems
Alarm system will not arm or shows a zone fault
Open zones, damaged contacts, detector faults, wiring or programming may need diagnosis.
Arrange an on-site inspection to isolate the cause.
Alarm battery low, communication failure or keypad fault
Panel battery, power supply, communicator, keypad bus or wireless signal faults may be involved.
Book a service call for controlled testing.
False alarms or damaged detectors
Detector placement, environmental movement, worn devices, pets, wiring or legacy equipment condition may contribute.
Ask SonSec to diagnose the zone before replacing the whole alarm system.
Legacy alarm needs repair or upgrade advice

Request a supported-legacy assessment for repair, maintenance or upgrade options.
